Inspired
by a beautiful imitation old violin from turn of the century
Tyrol, this short sentimental piece features a sweet melody
floating ethereally over a mechanical, music box-like pizzicato.

Frost
features one of the earliest modern stringed instruments,
a 1732 Viola d'amore which was converted in the 19th century
to a viola. By detuning the strings to a medieval pitch,
Paul is able to evoke the drone of late medieval/early renaissance
music and recreate the hum of the now-gone sympathetic strings.
The haunting tone is complemented by a dynamic, sensual
melody line which almost has an Art Deco Jazz sound in its
improvised style. Click
